Is Netbackup sent to tape in proprietary way

[Gujion_Wake]

If data sent to tape in normal way, standard fashion. I do not think a password is used but just sent to tape in normal way. If in normal way can tape get read with tar command instead of needing veritas?

Thank you and sorry if difficult to read.

Gujion,

yes you can use tar but you have to use the one owned by veritas

/usr/openv/netbackup/bin/tar

For more information, type ``/veritas/openv/netbackup/bin/tar +help''.

Thank you James Dunn. If password was set how do I check? How can I give good password if other user is now gone?

Gujion,

Do you have encryption set on your master?

[Gujion_Wake]

How do I see if encryption is there?

[zippy]

Guijon,

Do you have a key file?

You can check by going here

install_path\netbackup\bin\keyfile.data

or on unix

/usr/openv/netbackup/keyfile

I am sorry. That file is not there.
